Kyocera SNMN120412 CA315 – Turning Insert (10 pcs Cast Iron, CVD Coated Carbide)
The Kyocera SNMN120412 CA315 is a high-performance negative-type turning insert designed for cast-iron machining applications. As part of Kyocera’s CA3 Series, it features an advanced multi-layer CVD coating with micro-TiCN and α-Al₂O₃ layers that provide excellent wear resistance, high thermal stability, and superior adhesion strength. This makes the CA315 grade ideal for continuous to interrupted cutting of nodular and gray cast iron, delivering stable tool life even under demanding conditions.
Key Features & Benefits
- CA3 Series: Engineered for highly stable cast-iron machining with optimized coating adhesion and microstructure.
